Featured Interview: The Interior Beauty Salon
In this in-depth conversation with artist Nicolás Dumit Estévez Raful Espejo, Jennifer Zackin reflects on more than twenty years of art-making rooted in reverence and reciprocity, from her early pattern works and travels in India to her long collaboration with the Q'ero Nation of Peru, the Andean Despacho ceremony, and her ongoing commitment to art as an act of healing and exchange.
